Allergies

The difference between allergies and
food sensitivity (or other substance
sensitivity) is that people who have
an allergy to a substance (food,
medication or others) experience symptoms immediately when in contact with the
allergen. Sometimes the reactions can be life-threatening and require immediate
medical assistance.

Intoleranceto a substance on the other hand can be hidden and often sufferers
may have no idea that they don’t tolerate certain foods, supplements,
medication, cosmetics, detergents or other substances they ingest, inhale or
have access through skin.

How do we test for substance sensitivity
during a kinesiology session? A piece of a substance which may cause
sensitivity is held on the side of the cheek or under the tongue while the
muscles are undergoing various tests. For example in the case of wheat
sensitivity, if the arm is pressed down, the individual allergic to wheat will
be unable to hold their arm firm.

The kinesiology approach when
addressing allergies and substance sensitivity is very different from any other conventional or
holistic approach. In kinesiology we always offer one and the same approach and
it is a full energy balance.

What is interesting here is that
after the sensitivity is determined, a full kinesiology balance can help the person
to restore the tolerance to the substance instead of having to avoid this
substance. This is often possible when the person is sensitive to specific
foods – like wheat, gluten, some fruits, vegetables, nuts or seeds which can be
a very good source of energy.

Every kinesiology session is unique and leads the client one step
further to natural health and wellness. It offers awareness of what may be the
cause of the symptoms the person experiences. It can be a combination of series
of physical and emotional imbalances. All these are addressed and balanced if
they show during the course of a kinesiology session.
